Port Angeles police continue assault investigation

PORT ANGELES — Police are continuing to investigate an assault early Saturday morning that put one man in a coma and another man on the lam.

The 25-year-old victim, identified as Brian Morseburg, was listed in serious condition in intensive care Tuesday afternoon at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, hospital spokeswoman Susan Gregg-Hanson said.

He was taken to Harborview after suffering blunt trauma to the head, police said.

Meanwhile, police are looking for 24-year-old Logan Marquez of Port Angeles, a suspected assailant.

Marquez left the scene of the assault in a convenience store parking lot before officers arrived, police Sgt. Erick Zappey said.
